"I feel terrible for Nyeem Wartman-White, he'll be out for the season,” Franklin said, "It is obviously significant for Nyeem, because he's had two years in a row now that he's missing the season. He's worked really, really hard and has had an unbelievable attitude.”

Franklin said no decision has been made on whether Wartman-White, a fifth-year senior, will seek a sixth season of eligibility.
